This paper proposes a control method for a digital signal processor based series-series (SS) compensated wireless power transfer system. In the control method, load resistance and mutual inductance are identified simultaneously, and output voltage can be estimated by using only the primary side voltage and current without direct feedback from the secondary side circuit. Since this estimation method requires a complex mathematical calculation procedure, a digital signal processor is used in this system. One of the major disadvantages of using a digital controller in this system is a limitation of sampling rates. Therefore, in this paper, several current reconstruction methods with limited sampling rates are investigated and applied. As a result, this controller not only reduces the cost of the system but also shows good estimation performance within the limited digital controller unit resource. The proposed control concept is verified by experimental results with a 48W laboratory prototype.
